"Jim Hawkins becomes a girl rebelling against gender roles in this imaginative adaptation, which keeps alive the wit and excitement of the book."

Playwright Bryony Lavery brings Robert Louis Stevenson's epic tale of skullduggery to the stage in a thrilling new adaptation just in time for Christmas, that has gender-swapped the lead character for a more modern audience.
Jim, the innkeeper's granddaughter one night opens the door to a mysterious stranger, who pays her to keep a look out on his behalf during his stay. When a grizzled man enters coveting the contents of the sailor's sea chest, this encounter will prove to be the start of a thrilling adventure involving murder, mutiny and marauding buccaneers.
Bryony Lavery is best known for her work written from a feminist perspective, which has in part inspired to write the part of Jim as a female protagonist. Having written five plays for National Theatre Connections youth theatre scheme, she is also a contributor for the Tricycle Theatre in Kilburn.
Opening night: 4 December 2014
